You should NEVER modify generated code. All of our generated code is pretended with a big comment that says "GENERATED CODE DO NOT MODIFY. This code could be regenerated at any time and any changes will be lost."

If you need to change behaviour of generated code you need to change your generator to provide the right hooks.

Obviously none of this applies to "AI" generated code because the "AI" generator is not deterministic and will hallucinate different bugs from run to run. You must treat "AI" generated code as if it was written by the dumbest person you've ever worked with.

The reason you don't modify generated code is it gets clobbered upon regeneration. The reason it's okay to modify LLM-generated code is that it gets fed that back into the LLM for subsequent modification.

That's exactly my point :)
